Some hon. Members had the opportunity earlier this afternoon to see the British Heart Foundation film that showed young children going into pubs and buying cigarettes. It was clear in some cases that it was done, if not with the active encouragement of the staff, with their knowledge. They clearly did not think that it was their responsibility to stop it. Even if there are safeguards, they can be got around. As the example involves machines, if the staff who are responsible for the machines do not feel any responsibility, will that not stand in the way of the safeguards the hon. Gentleman is describing?
